From Tim Cowlishaw of the Dallas Morning News:

Modano said getting to the conference finals has him thinking this team can make one more push for the Stanley Cup. That, more than anything, is his biggest consideration.

He said if the Stars had gone out in the first round as they had done in their last three trips to the playoffs, he would have retired.

Here is the full story from the Dallas Morning News.

Modano is not the player he once was, however, he is still an above-average NHL player and can contribute to his team both on and off the ice. I suspect Modano will return next season.
